MS Paint Draw Thread
Let's draw sketches and silly doodles of whatever we want without any pressure. You don't have to use MS Paint if you don't want to as long as you're having fun. All skill levels are welcome!

And here's /trash/'s drawfriend discord If you like that sort of thing

Not been a good day so far. First time I miss making a new thread followed by the first thread death ever. What's going on?
>>9780609
Lots of drawthread spam going on right now. Help report it all.
>>9780648
I second that motion. I also have a word with /qa/ about it. >>>/qa/1382218
>>9780648
I was gonna ask how to report a thread, then noticed the REPORT BUTTON, BOY AM I DUMB.
wait, what happened to the other thread?
>>9780722
Someone have created a drawthread with a blacked edit: >>9779493
And then someone have an massively autistic temper tandrum over it.
Keep up the good work nonetheless.

PREVIOUS DRAWTHREAD THAT WAS PREMATURELY MURDERED
also here's my opossum pic i recently finished
>>9780722
IT WAS FUCKING MURDERED IN THE CRIB!
>>9780787
FORGOTMYPICKFUCKSPEEDOANDTHECIRCLEJERKS
Yay, janitor's here.
>>9781065
That's weird. You don't like pink bunnies. If it comes to it, I may draw for you guys.
>>9780547
BTW the short & recently deceased thread was >>9776251
https://desuarchive.org/trash/thread/9776251/
>>9781065
oh lawd he even got banned from his hugbox? How did that even happen?
>>9781477
nice cactus girl
my fav
>>9780750
it took me a while to understand what was the "problem"...
>>9780787
oh no, don't anthropomorphize it, that makes it even sadder. poor thread
>>9780789
it never occurred to me that spam was a thing here
oh well..
thanks for making another thread ey!
>>9782054
DRAW LEWDS
>Was gonna take requests in these threads someday when I was finally able to draw again, because I thought the words "MS Paint" would keep the undesirables away from these threads
>Welp, seems like I was wrong on that front
>>9781065
>>9781660
>He's such a shitstain that he got banned from his own hugbox/circlejerk
Holy shit
Here you go.
>>9780547
Rip the other thread. I liked that one's OP picture more.
>>9780609
hope your day gets better! or maybe tomorrow it will be better? oh well, hang in there mate
>>9782213
hahah, nooo. i don't know how to draw that stuff
>>9783456
>i don't know how to draw that stuff
not with that attitude
so i realized that flipnote lets you zoom in to a pixel level
while it makes animation a lot easier, only having like six colors to work with sucks.
>>9783633
my ocd wouldn't let me ignore those two pixels
also sped it up a bit
>>9781127
>The Sociopath thinks he can draw
>Pink buns at that
My sides haven't been out this far in orbit since 2014.
Speedy you're the only person that doesn't meet the minimum standards of this thread for anything you do to be considered """"""""""""good"""""""""""".
>>9781660
Are we talking about the drawfriends server? I wouldn't call that his hugbox.
>>9783233
Thanks. I'll repost it.
>>9784134
>expecting quality in mspaint
You know that you can stop harassing him and he will leave.
>>9783789
>only having like six colors to work with sucks
Think of it like being extra old-school, like on a C64 or NES.
>tfw I have no actual knowledge of anatomy but I still managed to shit this out.
posting a thing i did on miiverse almost a year ago. i still lurk there but i've gotten even rustier because GeePM stopped doing Miiverse streams.
>>9784276
At least with NES and C64 you have more than six colors to choose from.
Though now that you mention it I might try making actual C64 art.
>>9784276
>"You know that you can stop harassing him and he will leave"
>He actually thinks this is this case
He isn't some "le ebin trole xDDDD" that you can just ignore and they'll go away
You're dealing with advanced autism
Not like it matters at this point; now that he's infected this thread, this place is pretty much fucked unless he gets arrested or killed, and I doubt either is going happen, so have fun with that I guess
>>9783569
u got a point there
>>9784791
Just make fun of the Melvin, then move the fuck on, draw, post, talk shit with friends, END THE CIRCLE JERK.
How do I draw transformation
>>9784490
>I might try making actual C64 art.
Hype
If you don't feel like being true to the emulator, you can always just steal the color pallet from c64 wiki.
>>9785703
Pro strats:
Step 1: Before
Step 2-4: ???
Step 5: After
>>9785703
Use Animorphs book covers as a reference
>>9784507
never played the game, but there is something about the tutorial that made me watch it a few times
>>9780773
this is good and cute
>>9786360
the ZX spectrum is another fun palette to work with, pic related
>>9788186
also yeah it's an animation for ants, whatever, I don't care
it would also look better on a black background
i have no clue what's going on but i don't care enough to want to know
anyways i forgot who posted it but im pretty sure it was kira with his hand fetish first off, second i drew my hand while it was in a weird position so here's my hand in a weird position and also i forgot to cut my nails before hand so with long gross nails too...
>>9785703
i always imagined it as your body melting and re-solidifying in a horrifying and gruesome way that some can get off to
either that or just growing/shriking into the proper size and growing the parts needed, also in a brutal way, with like bones breaking and reforming and shit
>>9785703
just draw a cloud and write "POOF" on it
>>9783456
Aww thanks, everything seems back to normal now so it's all good. I tried to draw your character but it wasn't working out so here's my character drawing your character.
>>9783789
I got really excited when I saw this but you can't buy the game! Am I going to have to collect a ridiculous amount of nintendo points to get it on 3ds?
>>9784417
Super jealous mate
>>9785703
Not sure but I love that pone. The realistic colours look great.

More Miiverse stuff
>>9789032
Playing Miitomo and logging into Miiverse weekly gets you coins that can be used as platinum coins. I used them to get WarioWare Touched for 700 when it was on there.
IDK how effective it'd be now tho, Miitomo was a fad for only a few weeks.
I still occasionally check and a handful on my friends list are still playing.
Drew this this morning, still don't know what I'm doing.
Supposed to be climbing on glass
>>9789338
Thanks for the tip, but it turns out it only cost 200 points which I was able to earn almost immediately after creating an account. Super excited!
>>9789935
l-lewd
>>9789032
whoa hey, is that mouse trying to kill the rabbit? heh. don't worry too much, even i can't keep my own stuff on model. it's all over the place
still, good to know you are doing better eyy
>>9788186
you made that? you are right, it looks very good on a dark background. very fluid, how many frames you got there?
>>9788913
that's quite realistic. nice details you got going on there
>>9790115
Thanks, I made it for a LD entry I did a while back (sadly the game itself is shit because I ran into tons of technical issues that prevented me from making progress on it). It's 8 frames, the walk cycle is directly copied from this graphic:
https://4.bp.blogspot.com/_X93vLG9obc0/TL4VoAO_mTI/AAAAAAAABvU/gV3cFSwDiKo/s1600/WalkCycle_Side.jpg
>>9790067
Looking at it again, it really is lewder than I originally thought. Maybe my cartoon bugs are turning into a stream of unintentional fetish fuel.
halp, i guess
>>9790610
>halp, i guess
embrace it
also it's a good doodle, btw
>>9790686
Insect porn was pretty funny until I made more of it. I just really like bugs, mostly in relatively normal, entomological ways. Or so I like to think.
thnx
>>9790337
>directly copied
ey come on, i actually expected a carbon copy, not a reference picture. nicely translated into a sprite animation! a shame your game didn't turn out as you wanted, though.
oh, and ld stands for ludum dare? sounds like fun
>>9791759
thanks, and yeah I meant ludum dare. It was stressful but pretty fun, I plan on giving it another go during the next one... probably with a less physics-based concept too since it turns out debugging physics stuff can eat up a weekend by itself easily
>>9792498
I love this little trash village so much.
Good morning
challenge: draw a hand
>>9793457
the sun really doesn't want you to eat that yoghurt

>>9795708
Challenge: draw a robot
Hard mode: draw a non-humanoid robot
>>9796167
Here's a better-looking robot, by the way.
>>9796167

THE WORLD IS BEING INVADED BY GIANT COCK HUNGRY BIRDS
WHAT DO
I am buck-nom and totally not a pac-man bootleg.
I am taking requests if there is any.
>>9797235
well that depends
do they want to EAT the cocks or merely suckle on them
>>9798209
draw a poptart using the whole screen as base
>>9796167
Ok... here's my robot, also ty for losing your hand fetish kira
>>9790115
thank you i tried really hard to draw it realistically
>>9797235
that bird looks like it's angry at the size of the penis instead
>>9796167
ro butt
>>9791781
oh do you happen to have any vids of your game? i wanna see that gameplay
I got a new tablet and drew this.
>>9796167
>>9797235
>>9800199
Well done! You inspired me to draw Phillip, from Space Funeral (one of my all-time favorite games, by the way)
>>9804236
Thanks, here's a more complete version.

>seizure.jpg
>>9818781
I might make a gif of these sometime.
feels good when you finally get that ancient decade old tablet to work... erratically but still. it's not like you need pen pressure for paint.
and then we have tattoos on fur. how's that supposed to work?
>>9819260
That pretty cool.
>>9812914
>>9814549
I love it.
Have a cat in return.
>>9796167
Does the arm make it count as humanoid?
>>9796167
non-humanoid robots are easier to draw than humanoid ones, so that's actually easy mode
>>9820946

ohsofhasofhasfohasfas
following anon's advice i tried to draw a sexy pose. ended up with a broken spine. send help pls. or some loomis
>>9825937
That's pretty good. Besides people seriously injure their bodies to look sexy all the time irl.
>>9806990
>>9809500
thanks. i tried giving it a substantial design today but i ended up with two and idk which to go with
>>9828031
def. top one
goats are cudly
>>9828031
I kinda like them both for different reasons. Maybe they could be friends?
>>9824489
I'm curious about it. It'll be hilarious if it ends up being good when compared to all the flopped reimaginings of reputable games.
>>9828031
Gote

I really need to get in on these.

not a goat, just a little imp who looks like one
>>9830412
that's not a bad idea, i might stick with that
>>9838163
kewt gote
>>9838163
I want lewds of the goat and her friend
Finished a sketch of Zacharie from OFF just now.
>>9833268
Aggies always be fun to look at
>>9838163
so what does smol imp do for a living?
Boop
>>9839254

>>9841251
they're literal semen demons. they get fucked mon-fri and spend weekends playing vidya
>>9838503
>>9838636
i'm making her getting mistaken for a goat a thing now
>>9797235
Exploit their weaknesses.
This is Humphrey, some weird thing I cooked up in the ol' noodle a year ago. He may look sad, because he is.

do you ever regret something the instant you start doing it but you force yourself to keep going?
that's my last hour
now i'm off to watch Bethesda's E3 presentation
>Drawthread spam? On my board?
It's more cancerous than we thought. Keep it alive faggots.
>>9851214
ok what the fuck is going on with those. i tried to stay out of the drama but i gotta know whos the autist doing this
magic gote bump to save from drawthread hell
>>9851214
>check my shark thread
>"This thread has been pruned or deleted"
Shark loses last additional bit of hope.
>>9851743
>>9851950
Here's what I got from it.
Some requester on the drawthread got pissed off over something and went ballistic. They've spammed the board at least three times in the past few days. It will be a meme for 2 weeks, probably.
Other users cite the drawthread being clogged with bad, recurring, unfulfilled requests and unfriendly requesters to the drawers, but that's besides the point.
Spam is an enforced global rule, and mods do respond to reports, so do your part when you see spam.
>>9837275
Holy shit senpai that's a tall order
i'll see to it after im done with my robot first as i want to try some shading stuff out
>>9851214
so i've also been meaning to ask how come so much drawthread spamming lately?
is it a certain someone being a douchebag?>>9851743
Rest in spaghetti, never forgetti the shark titty
>>9852158
sir i have reason to believe you capture the true image of god here, please bring this to the pope immediately
>>9824489
>>9850718
i will admit it doesn't look bad so i have somewhat high hopes but then again... shit just happens ya know?
also yes many times i have wondered this question... then the bell rang and i wondered what the fuck is half of the shit i learned in high school would actually do for me other than show off how much of a fucking faggot i am
also here's something i've been working on for aeons and i kept changing the line art cuz holy shit i have serious issues, also i couldn't figure out what color i should make her eyes as i really wanna stay with reds for her but nothing i try works... anyone willing to help a brother out with this?
>>9852443
Could try some shades of purple-red or orange. Green, cyan, and blue don't seem like they would fit.
Also, is Riza your own character? She's very cute.
>>9852943
I think i finally found it, thank you so much for the help
also yeah she is and yeah she really is cute
I can't make a proper reply so here's my shit.
>>9853642

>>9796167
>>9839254
Looks great!
>>9852443
I often use various color palette sites with similar shades to decide on what other colors I should use; That's my recommendation.
>>9854855
I don't blame you, shyguy9 makes some great OCs. Well done!
>>9859794
>I don't blame you, shyguy9 makes some great OCs. Well done!
thanks, desu I just like that big dragon butt
>I often use various color palette sites with similar shades to decide on what other colors I should use

It's Mouseanon. Last night was the first time in years that I got so drunk that I lost my memory. Did I do anything stupid?
>>9863133
AFAIK, no
>>9863133
Not that we know of
>>9865305
I like the way you think
>>9865369
heh sadly i'm no stranger to blackouts
>>9867135
i really hope you didn't wake up inside a trash bin... or a bottle
fock.
>>9868523
No but I did a lot of stuff I don't remember doing/wouldn't normally do. Like taking the empty cans outside and eating half a pizza pop and throwing it away. I'm afraid to go back to the discord. I hope I didn't get in a fight with anyone.
>>9783789
I know you like old computer art so I drew(typed?) your bun on my osborne. It was a long and stupid (but fun) process to figure out how to do it but it worked sort of. Next time I'd use different characters though.
Also if you're up for it would you be willing to make some 52x23 pixel art that I could turn into more osborne art? Now that I figured it out I kind of want to do more.
>>9869594
Fuck I forgot the picture.
And here's one with the computer in frame in case anyone's interested.
>>9869815
oh shit, it's an oldschool portable, I forgot the Osborne I was that style of computer
that's cool as fuck
>>9869594
I was there in the call, you were perfectly nice and sweet Mouseanon
>>9869319
i like those lines. what are you using? paint? i tried making some lines that go from thick to thin but it was an exercise in futility.
>>9869594
discord sounds like fun, although i've never used it
have an opossum made for the opossum thread
>>9870396
Tapered lines are easy to get in MS Paint, but is absolutely tedious to make. You just gotta build up line then you erase/or color over where you wants points and different widths.
Afraid drawthread spam will happen any minute bump.
It's 2:30 AM and I'm half asleep, but here's something.
>>9869594
>I'm afraid to go back to the discord. I hope I didn't get in a fight with anyone.
Nah, you were really cool. You should do voice chat again.
Good morning
Bump with an unrelated GIF
>>9871984
>easy
oh boy. well i guess i'll keep trying til i get somewhere
>>9873884
good morning to you too, although it's almost midday over here
woke up to find that felix colgrave noticed my double king fanart on tumblr
it's a pleasant surprise
>>9869594
>>9869600
Awesome. Do you want me to post it at exactly 52x23 or upscaled like I normally would post
>>9875009
>39 notes
i'm hella envious
>>9859794
Does that robot have lego minifigure legs?
But what about a sexually frustrated Wyvern that has trouble masturbating because of her wing-hands?
>>9876154
I want to see her go through more and more elaborate means of getting off that end up comically failing
>>9875009
You can upscale it if you want
>>9874723
When did the head grow a body?
>>9876154
that makes me sad for her
feminine blueballs is a real thing
>>9877082
oh no, it's haunting me.
let's say it was mostly because i was lazy and draw the thing in such a way the rest of the body wouldnt show.
its fine though, i took care of that weird creature with this gif
>>9877380
That's really cool
bunp
>>9876154

>>9881002

>>9863133
Not that we know of, although might wanna check your backyard and hope you don't find a hooker
>>9859794
I see, thank you also for the advice
also i decided in adding a background and a doing some touch ups here and there, but mostly a background as i need to get better at them so sorry for posting the same shit 3 times but just kinda wanted to show the changes i did
>>9877380
Fever dreams tend to linger whether you want them or not.
And that's a pretty neat animation.
>>9876973
i probably should of asked before I started, but is it okay if do it in portrait instead of landscape
i'm okay with either
is it also okay if i post the osborne images to tumblr?
>>9882941
Of course to both of your questions
>>9883005
alright, here is the version i did in portrait
i tried using as few colors as possible
>tfw one of my characters is a Paintra knock off from Kirby
>>9883122
Awesome. That should be perfect.
>>9875543
Yes actually, it's supposed to be Junkbot (poorly drawn from memory).
>>9885537
...In fact, there were a lot of niggly things in it that bugged me, so I redrew it.
>>9878364
haha oh goodness, i couldnt stop feeling like this >>9850718 since the very moment i started making it
>>9882193
and yet it strikes again, same modus operandi. the idea was to have it roll away and then shoot the abomination, but i already had to erase quite a few frames because paint.net started to get glitchy with so many layers. maybe it's because of the gif addon
...
any simple and easy to use animation software? pls
>>9887315
I use paint.net for each individual frame then put them together in EZGif. It can be a bit tedious if you want to edit frames but the end result is usually good.
i didn't even know there was a gif addon for paint.net.
>>9887672
oh i downloaded paint.net because i thought it was mspaint 2.0. and it kinda is, but i feel the lines are kinda weird, don't like em too much. maybe i'm just biased
still, here is what i used https://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/31629-animated-images/ give it a try if you want. after 20 layers the thing slowed down to a crawl and sometimes crashed. idk if it's the addon, paint.net or my pc
Boop
>>9888228
What don't you like about the lines in paintnet? The brush tool is much more customizable.
>>9889906
i had to check it out to be sure i was not just... imagining things. it turns out mspaint tries to fix your lines, just a little bit. meanwhile paint.net doesnt care and lets you see your ugly lines the way they truly are
i'm talking about the 1 and 2 px pencil/brush without anti aliasing
i think i should move to pain.net, even though mspaint is so comfy lol
The character on the left is Melvin.
He likes watches.
>>9890522
glasses not thick enough
not enough penises jutting out all over the place
>>9890658
end your life
>>9883122
This is the best picture I got before my batteries died so I'll try to get a better picture tomorrow. It's just a shame that I can't capture just how awesome it looks irl in a photograph. Best results when looked at from a distance.
Thanks again for making this artwork for me and I'm sorry it took so long to reproduce. I tried a whole bunch of different characters to see what looked best. Turns out the X's for eyes didn't really work out on camera so maybe I'll try something else next time.
>>9887315
Haha no it's a sweet animation. I've been working on one myself but I think I was a bit too ambitious for my own good, at least you managed to make something cool.
>>9883383
Don't know the character but I like her. Pointy feet are always adorable.
>>9890522
I like him. Hilarious misadventures with the two of them when?
>>9890522
hes uh... such a weasel! eheheh...
sry
>>9890658
haha wtf??
>>9890869
you are way too kind. i guess everyones first animation is something silly and like whateverrr
on the other hand that looks so nice. it boggles my mind how someone can make art out of symbols just like that
>>9891431
Thanks. It's a helluva lot easier when a pro pixel artist does the hard part ^:)
>>9892472
Yeah! I'd be happy to turn any art you send my way into osborne art. I'll get new batteries tomorrow so I should be able to take better photos. I just wish you could see how awesome it looks on the mini crt.
>>9887315
Your artstyle looks eerily familiar.
Do you have a tumblr?
Neat
>>9892536
idk how shading will turn out but i felt a mouse was appropriate for the thread
>>9894003
Nice work! My only criticism is that the distinction between the crease at the end of the mouth and the eye is a bit hard to parse.
>>9894875
a million hours in notepad spent fixing it
>>9894904
Nice, that reads a lot better.
What time is it?
comic time
>>9871984
>easy but tedious
It's not really easy then
>>9892598
that would be weird since the last time i tried to draw anything was literally years ago. until i found this thread a month ago, heh
and i've been thinking about creating a tumblr, but idk. what for?
...
alright so i tried to draw of of those oc from the other thread, but i guess i got kinda confused and mixed the two ref pics they posted. maybe i should try lookin at them references before doing anything next time. eh, could be worse i guess
How do you guys draw porn? what are your secrets? do daily sacrifices to Satan help in any way? hark quickly for help is needed!
quickly inked and colored over a sketch I found online. I wanted to see if I loosely ink a background and have it be readable.

study anatomy and do gesture drawings, mostly. Also imitate things I like from other porn artists.
I don't do enough of the first two of those things, though, so my porn doesn't look so great sometimes.
>>9898319
how would you draw it? have you tried using some reference pics? if you want to create a whole scene by yourself then i guess you really need to know anatomy, otherwise its gonna be a mess
>>9899735
on very rare occasions I'll use references.
I don't use them for the most part because apart of me believes that it's tracing to an extent and I really hate copying other peoples work
>>9895846
That's crazy that you can draw so well after such a long break. Why'd you quit?
>>9900345
A combination of laziness and forgetting to get references, mostly. And sometimes difficulty with finding a suitable reference for what I'm trying to do.
>>9899844
not using references is retarded
decided to draw some mismagius a few minutes ago, didn't think i'd be having so much trouble with its fairly simple face. also i think its body might be too short, might have to fix that.
>>9902833
Thanks m8
>>9903376
mismagius is a bitch and a half to draw
>>9902072
honestly idk... my canvas used to be the school desk, which happens to be a bit like /trash/. you might draw something, but after a while everything will be gone, erased. it's kinda nice.
>>9902292
i totally get you. mostly the forgetting part
>>9902833
maybe i am, oh well
...
feels good to pick up the pencil again, even if its for a while
not finished yet bump
oh boy it's scribble time!

>>9907413
after audio editing
>>9907448
I used a delay effect.
>>9904005
i think it's all the jagged lines that make it a little challenging. i figured i've drawn more difficult things than this so it'll be a piece of cake but nah, also i realized i made the hat too thin. i'll mess with it later though, will post as i progress.
>>9894904
I love it! Got some new batteries and found my other lens so here's the text version. Again best viewed from a distance. I might try doing an inverted version too just to see what it looks like.
>>9905108
Aw man I miss doodling on my school desk. I used to leave a notebook in my desk back in junior high and other kids would write notes or their own doodles. Good times.
Also here's a better version of the pixel cat from yesterday with the zoom lens.

Is there a link to this or is it Discord Exclusive™?
>>9909654
we organized this on discord
>>9909677
a ms Paint discord?
>>9907838
>>9907928
now thats some dedication eh! nice. how long does it take you to make one of these?
>>9909464
so many doodles, how many were drawing on that canvas?
.
pic related i just found out i have a thing for thin lines. had to stop because it was getting out of hand lol. its so relaxing
>>9910717
looks like you picked a good time to stop with those lines, you struck a good balance with the amount used
also we had approximately 6 people
I need to get a less shit drawing program, krita is pissing me off for being far slower than it has any right to be
>>9910754
it's like everyone picks their own little spot and then try to defend it or something heh. its all good over there? no drama?
>>9910904
ive never heard of krita, but have you tried sai? as far as i know it works quite well on old pcs, if thats whats giving you trouble. on the other hand its quite basic i think. its not free but it has a trial version.
>>9911118
no drama
occasional vandalism done on a layer seperate from other people's stuff for giggles
>>9911118
Sai is one I'm considering, yeah, although I hear it's a bit outdated. Krita is an open-source program that has a lot of nice features, but it fucking chugs on my machine once I start working at sizes greater than 3000x3000 or so. I would just start using Manga Studio, but it doesn't seem to be compatible with a piece of software I use that adds touchscreen buttons for keyboard shortcuts.
>old pc
Mine's about a year old, so it shouldn't be giving me such bad performance.
Good morning
My mspaint skills have not faultered
Can't sleep. Gonna try again.
>>9910717
It takes me longer than it should since I'm easily distracted so I can't give a real estimate. I might make a short video showing off the software so keep an eye out for that.
>>9910737
Well there's this pic >>9869815 from a couple days ago that pretty much sums up my view. It also looks better irl than what the camera can capture, it's a shame I can't share its true beauty.

A quick search says to disable opengl and increase memory limits.
https://superuser.com/questions/1104948/how-to-speed-up-krita
I found the folder of a game I was working on in March last year. Contrary to what I thought, this was my first proper attempt at pixel art. Here's the one sprite I don't now think is completely abysmal.
I was going to go back to it and re-draw the art then I recoiled in horror at how bad my earliest attempts at Construct 2 were when I had no idea how to use it.
>>9907838
>>9907928
Thank you again dude!
You've been a real inspiration for me to pick up Endoomer again to try ANSII art.
I drewd a lady
at least there's some improvement
>>9912645
You know, I should've thought to search for that. Instead I just decided Krita was shit.
That's bizarre that DISABLING opengl improves performance, though.
>>9912645
Oh, turns out the OpenGL fix stopped being an issue in Krita 3.0. I'd already had the memory limit turned up pretty high (12 GB out of 16 GB) but increasing the internal memory pool size and swap file size seems to have fixed the problem, at first glance.
Thanks for your help.
cute
>>9903376
noticing some issues with the hat and the little...neck thing. at least i made some progress with it though, mostly just going by memory though, which is probably why some things look a little fucked up lol.
boop
>>9913357
and pick up endoomer i did, though i had drawn it in paint.net before typing it all into DOSBox.
>>9907838
if you want to Osborne-ify it I can post the version cropped for it.
>>9919691
LEWD
what a day. couldnt doodle anything at all. may as well post the ones i did yesterday since i post everything i make and the thread is about to die anyways. worry not, if i ever start doodling like a madman i wont post everything lol
>>9911142
good to know. as in its heartwarming to know there is a thread not collapsing itself with incessant infighting
>>9912060
alrighty, thanks. ive always found old hardware interesting enough to wonder how it works and what it does. but not enough to buy it for myself and start a collection
>>9913357
hey thats cute. do you have any screenshots of your game?
>>9921704
here's the two levels i had finished
the red boxes with Xs were enemy spawners.
i never got around to drawing the background
it was basically flicky but with more complex levels and no screen-wrapping
>>9921985
recently i actually redrew the player sprite from the game i did finish and release
https://www.scirra.com/arcade/action-games/space-bunny-zita-10296
about a month or two while playing around with ideas for a new game i started adding outlines to my sprites and started doing pixel art regularly
>>9921704
Whenever I can't think of what to doodle I just do drawing exercises so that my hand will do what my brain tells it to if I get an idea.
I find it to be almost hypnotic to just sit down and see how far I can get in a single stroke before I lose control and it stops being smooth.
And every now and then my brain pick up on a pattern or shape in the mess of lines that I can then open a new canvas to see if I can make something out of it.
Not to mention how fucking great it feel when things are going alright and how failure just makes me want to try again so that I'll get it right.
wip
>>9922082
ill admit i was expecting something like >>9921985 when i opened the game. just taking my time, reading the text, and the next thing i know is im dead.
heh, it gave quite a workout, i like it. personal best 11178 whoa, although i think its bugged because it says i made it 3 hours ago, and i cant get past 5k right now
oh and the music is quite catchy, too. good job, i could see myself playing it when newgrounds was hotstuff. although i wouldnt mind a pause button lol
>>9922635
oh, its not that i couldnt think of something to doodle. i had stuff to do. still have, ugh
either way its a nice idea, ill keep that in mind. somehow it reminds me of acid
>>9924023
Yeah I definitely took that arcade mentality too far. It didn't help that I was playing SuperHot and Hotline Miami around the same time.
As for the leaderboards i can't do anything about that aside from sending the score, that's all handled on Scirra's end.
>oh and the music is quite catchy, too. good job
that was done by a friend who's actually musically talented. i did try to make the title screen music but it was far worse so i asked him to remix it to sound closer to his track.
>although i wouldnt mind a pause button lol
I actually couldn't lol, Construct 2's free version is so limited I'd have to cut something out to add that.
i have been tinkering around with making another platformer, but a vertical one like Rainbow Islands or Kid Icarus.
>>9923410
not the suggestion i gave but still breddy gud
thread approaching 300
use this one or don't, i don't care
>>9926741
I was working on one but since you were nice enough to put one together I'll use it once we hit page 5 or so.
>>9924570
well be sure to share it around these parts. you got the art, a friend who makes the music and what it seems to be a simple yet robust engine. break a leg mate
